  1. Chapter 4 The Muscular System

  2. Functions of the Muscular System • hold the body erect • make movements possible • smooth muscle moves food through the digestive system • moves fluids through ducts • generates heat to keep the body warm • moves blood through veins

  3. Combining Form for Muscle • MY/o = muscle • Myoparesis • (my-oh-PAR-eh-sis) • MYO/0 = muscle • -paresis = Partial orincomplete paralysis

  4. Structure of the Muscular System • Muscle Fibers: • long, slender cells • each muscle consists of a group of fibers held together by connective tissue • enclosed in a fibrous sheath

  5. Combining Forms for Muscle Fibers • FIBR/o = Fibrous tissue • Fibromyalgia • FIBR/o = Fibrous Tissue • MY/o = Muscle • -algia = Pain • Pain of the muscles and fibrous tissue

  6. Combining Forms for Muscle Fibers • FIBROS/o = Fibrous Tissue • Fibrosis • FIBROS/o = Fibrous Tissue • -is = noun ending • Abnormal formation of fibrous tissue.

  7. Fascia (FASH-ee-ah) • Sheet or band of fibrous connective tissue • covers muscles • supports muscles • separates muscles

  8. Combining Forms for Fascia • FASCI/o = Fascia or Fibrous band • Fasciotomy (fash-ee-OT-oh-me) • FASCI/o = Fascia • -otomy = cutting or surgical incision • cutting or surgical incision of the fascia

  9. Tendons • Narrow band of fibrous connective tissue • attaches a muscle to bone • don’t confuse tendons and ligaments • ligaments attach bone to bone

  10. Combining Forms for Tendons • TEN/o • TEND/o • TENDIN/o

  11. TEN/o • Tenolysis • TEN/o = tendon • -lysis = set free

  12. TEND/o • Tendotomy • TEND/o = Tendon • -otomy = cutting or surgical repair • Cutting or surgical repair of a tendon.

  13. TENDIN/o • Tendinitis • TENDIN/o = Tendon • -itis = Inflammation • Inflammation of the tendon.

  14. Aponeurosis (ap-oh-new-ROH-sis) • Fibrous sheet or expanded tendon • giving attachment to muscular fibers • origin or insertion of a flat muscle

  15. Combining Form APONEUR/o • Aponeurotome • APONEUR/o = Aponeurosis • -tome = instrument to cut • Instrument to cut the aponeurosis.

  16. Types of Muscle Tissue • 3 Types: • Skeletal Muscle: (striated) (voluntary) attach to the bones; makes motion possible • Smooth Muscle:(unstriated) (involuntary) moves internal organs • Cardiac Muscle: (myocardium) forms most of the wall of the heart.

  17. Kinesiology: (kih-nee-see-OL-oh-jee) • The study of muscular activity and the resulting movement of body parts. • KINESI/o = combining form • -KINESIS or KINESIA = suffix

  18. Kinesioneurosis • Prefix • None • Combining Form • KINESI/o = movement • NEUR/o = nerve, nerve tissue • Suffix • -osis = disease, an abnormal condition

  19. Hypokinesia • Prefix: • none • Combining Form: • HYP/o = under, decreased, deficient, below • Suffix: • -kinesia: movement • Decreased movement.

  20. Contraction and Relaxation • Contraction: tightening of a muscle, during which it becomes shorter and thicker. • Relaxation: muscle returns to its original form or shape. • These contrasting action make motion possible.

  21. Muscle Tone • Also know as Tonus • normal state of balanced muscle tension • present in the body when one is awake • combining form: • TON/o = tone, tension, or stretching

  22. Range of Motion • ROM = Range of Motion • describes types of movements made possible by muscles. • Page 76 Table 4.1 • Know contrasting muscle motions.

  23. How Muscles are Named • Origin and Insertion • Muscle Origin: place where the muscle begins (originates) • Muscle Insertion: place where the muscle ends. (inserts)

  24. Example of Origin and Insertion • Sternocleidomastoid: helps flex the neck and rotate the head. • Stern/o = sternum, originates • Cleid/o = collar bone, originates • mastoid/o = mastoid process, inserts

  25. Stenocleidomastoid

  26. How Muscles Are Named • Muscle named for action: • lifting • flexing • extending

  27. Flexor carpi radialisis and extensor carpi radialisis

  28. How Muscle are Named • Muscles named for location. • location on the body • or the organ they are near

  29. How Muscles are Named • Named for fiber direction • straight (rectus) • oblique (slanted or angle) • transverse (crosswise) • sphincter (ring like)

  30. ----------------rectus abdominus --------external oblque ---------internal obliques ----------transverse abdominus

  31. -----------Pectoralis major -----------External oblique

  32. How Muscle or Named • Muscles named for number of division forming them. • Example: • Biceps = Bi- means two • triceps = Tri- = means three

  33. How Muscles are Named • Muscles are named because they are shaped like a familiar object. • Example: • Deltoid muscle (shoulder cap) • shaped like an inverted triangle or the Greek letter delta.

  34. Deltoid

  35. How Muscles are Named • Muscles are named because of their size. • Gluteus maximus largest muscle of the buttock

  36. Pathology – Fibers, Fascia, Tendons • Fasciitis • Tendinitis

  37. Pathology – Muscles • Adhesion • Atrophy • Myalgia • Myolysis • Polymyositis • Myomalacia • myosclerosis

  38. Pathology – Hernias • A protrusion of a part or structure through the tissues normally containing it.

  39. Pathology –Muscle Tone • Atonic • Dystonic • Hypertonic • Hypotonic • myotomic

  40. Pathology – Voluntary Muscle Movement • Ataxia • Dystaxia • Contracture • Intermittent claudication • Spasm (cramp) • Spasmotic torticollis

  41. Pathology – Muscle function • Bradykinesia • Dyskinesia • Hyperkinesia (hyperactivity) • Hypokinesis • Tardive dyskinesia

  42. Pathology –Myoclonus • Myoclones • Singultus • Myasthemia • Myasthemia gravis (MG)

  43. Pathology –Muscular Dystrophy • Muscular dystrophy (MD) • Duchenne’s MD • Becker’s MD

  44. Pathology –Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) • Chronic • Wide spread aching pain • Tender points • Fatigue

  45. Pathology –Repetitive Stress Disorders • Repetitive motions • Ergonomics • Overuse injury
